Be it known that l', Ric-imno JONAS, 'ibect of the German E in, Germany,-have invented new and useful f the type disclosed in United States Letters Patent' No. 798,189, Vgranted on August 29th,1904 to ference y such aft;

Ialso provide i the longitudine wa on-bodies. 5 n wagonsfor anim built the le-socket a l coupling-member to the :il draft us et vpresent supports the reach. In my irnoroved wagon, as will be understood from the above, the front wagon-body itself constitutes-a kind of riding-bolster, and receives su nal coup in n1ernber, relativel g, motion.
